The terrier thought we were hunting the cat,
Got q grip of her tail, rs she went for the rat.
Jim, with his hntchet, tumbled over a pail
ndtried to hold terrier back by the tail.

The table received such bump from his pate
That teapot, plates, lamp, chairs, baby and all,
Were upset on the floor, mid crash and squall.
The people about shouted "Murderl Fire |"
And the police rushed in the cause to inquire
They'd listen to nothing, we wanted to state,
But to the next station lugged me Off straight.

And OF my poor infant endangered the life,
Broke tables, chairs, and the crockery ware :.

Instead OF depending on traps, dogs or cats
